| Abstract: | Over the years, Gene Woolsey and others have taught us that mathematics and models are not always necessary to solve important problems in OR/MS. Often, the best solutions are novel and unusual -- that is, they are creative. The principles of creative thinking can help practitioners and researchers in OR/MS explain, understand, and enhance their work. In this series of columns, the author discusses many principles of creative thinking and ways in which you can become more creative and enhance your problem-solving skills. |
